IMPRINT ZA: INSTAGRAM
In October, the LGBTQ+ community comes together to celebrate Pride Month where individuals dress to impress and advocate against the rights of the community.
The rainbow community seeks to shed light on people in the queer community for those who identify themselves as either gay, lesbian, transgender or queer.
Fashion is always the name of the game in this community, as they allow people to express themselves however they want with no judgements held.
This year’s pride month we seek to celebrate queer members of the fashion industry in style.
